Review by Arnar Palsson

The album "Alternate Route" by Mike Vax & New Oakland Jazz Orchestra, Cami Thompson, and Pete Escovedo is a brilliant masterpiece that showcases a powerful fusion of jazz and Latin rhythms. The album features a range of upbeat and soulful tracks that are sure to get listeners grooving.

The title track "Alternate Route" is a standout number that captures the essence of the entire album. It features Cami Thompson's soulful vocals, accompanied by a lively horn section and a driving rhythm section. The song is a perfect blend of jazz and Latin influences, with each musician taking turns to showcase their skills.

Other tracks like "The Be-Bop Hop" and "Mambo Jambo" are also high-energy numbers that showcase the band's virtuosity and versatility. The album also features a few ballads, including "In A Sentimental Mood" and "My One And Only Love," which provide a nice contrast to the more upbeat tracks.
